Today will be day 5 for me, longest streak ever. I just arrived at RunningAhead, and it is the color charts that actually are enticing me not to miss a day of running. I want to keep a streak going from now till Dec 31 2012, and then see if I can go the entirety of 2013 and get a full year streak done.

I am not overly obsessed with doing a streak in the least, but again, it is the little color bars on the stats page that make me want to get out there and do at least a quick 2 miler + keep the streak going now. (Like yesterday). :-)

Day 9 down. Almost missed it. Forgot to set the alarm and rushed to the gym because I didn't want to end it yet. Longest since training for the half at the beginning of the year. 4 miles because I ran out of time. Hoping for along outdoor run this weekend. Woohoo for keeping me motivated...Longest streak in a while.

Hit day 8 yesterday and also climbed over the 1000 mi mark for this year. I know there's a lot of folks piling on many more miles than that, but I was still pretty pleased to hit that mark after missing it by a small margin last year.

Yep, it would be so easy to blow it off, but this thread gives us a kick in the butt, doesn't it? Thanks, SeanV2, for the collective kicks!

Last night, I was supposed to run 2-3 with my husband after he got home from work. Well, he calls me from work and says that his aunt and grandma are coming through town on their way from Wisconsin to Florida and will be at our door in 90 minutes. So I quickly changed clothes and ran 1.5 miles. Could not let the streak die because of inconsiderate relatives!
